Re: Bathroom remodel


Ive done a similar thing in my bakery and cottages using double sided tape. It works quite well but if you get it wrong its very hard to reposition the paper without ruining the piece. Does anyone know if there are pre-shaped papers for Oakwood Manor/Delux House? I havent been game to try making templates for that one myself.

I just use cheap water based glue. You can remove the paper quite easily without damaging it I find, and it sticks quite well.

Re: Bathroom remodel


Does the glue wrinkle the paper? I guess even glue stick would work. Isnt it amazing how the simple solutions are usually the best.

Well, scrap booking paper seems fairly thick in general, so if you don't put too much it shouldn't wrinkle the paper.Never had any of mine wrinkle emoticon You could experiment with glue sticks, but I haven't tried them.

Re: Bathroom remodel


I feel a renovation comming on. I think I must go looking for some more interesting flooring than the felt Ive been using - it seems rather plain.

Re: Bathroom remodel


Here are some pics of my oakwood Manor interiors.I will let you know that glue sticks work really well. If you get glue on anything you dont want it to be on it comes off really easily just with a little rubbing and if you need to remove the whole sheet of wallpaper a spray of water all over gets it off quick smart.

Re: Bathroom remodel


They are stunning.The bathing Beagles are way cute! i also like your choice of paper to match the green bedroom suite.
I whimped on decorating OM as it seemed quite fiddly, and my double sided tape technique just want up to the task.

Very nice rooms! All I have in my houses are curtains made of lace and stuck on with sticky-tac. Your wallpapers make your rooms gorgeous emoticon

Re: Bathroom remodel


Wow! Your photos our great!!!!
You should join me and Sonja in renovating houses and selling them on ebay!
Your very talented!
I use scrap-booking papers too! But I find super glue is the best for sticking them on to the walls.
I found the hardest thing was to make the curtains, but I recon I've cracked it!!!
Here's a couple of photos from a House on the hill I've just recently sold on ebay.
I was very pleased with the end result!!!

Re: Bathroom remodel


Wow the wallpaper, curtains and carpet make the homes look so comfy and homey. They also make the rooms look original! Well done on your creativity. I am sure that you had so much fun doing it too. I know I would have
